How is your network setup since you have both a Netgear router and a 'modem'? Have you done the proper 'port forwarding' in your ADSL-router?

Perhaps your Netgear router is your ADSL-'modem' with 10.0.0.3 on the ADSL-line and 192.168.1.21 on the local network (howerver that one would usually be something like 192.168.1.1 = default gateway on your local network). 10.0.0.3 is a private IP address, which can't be accessed from the internet. Your ISP=Internet Service Provider must assign your router a public IP address which can be accessed from the internet. Contact your ISP to have it fixed. It is not uncommon on mobile networks to be assigned a private IP address.

According to my internet connection-
IP 192.168.21.1
Connection DCHP
Submask 255.255.255.0
DNS 192.168.1.1

but 192.168.21.227 or 228 does not seem to work

I can't see offhand what your problem is without taking a look using Teamviewer,
but I can send you my networking checklist that walks you through the process of
setting RemoteRig up on your network.

Drop me a mail at dj0qn (at) darc.de and I will send it off to you. If that doesn't
help you out, we can look at step 2.

I understand your internet router has 192.168.21.1 on your local network (LAN). This is not the IP address you can connect to from the internet. Your internet router or www.myip.dk will tell you your IP address on the internet (WAN) and this is the address to connect to via the internet.

192.168.21.228 can only be used when your pc is on the local network at the remote site. As described in the manual make sure your remote boxes works when both are on your local network at the remote site before you try access from the internet.

Get and follow the excellent checklist from Mitch DJ0QN.
